Uptown Ann Arbor

Neda Berenjian

I lived here for a year and there were definitely pros and cons (like everywhere). Uptown was a great place in terms of location, I loved the apartment itself and I actually became good friends with one of my neighbors. EXCEPT, the neighbors above me were HORRIBLE- which is why I'm docking one star. Building 3276 unit 206 is a unit you DO NOT want since the neighbors ABOVE are very disrespectful with their sounds. They make loud sounds at all times of the day but especially in the morning when Audrey leaves for work around 6 30/7am and then at late night hours. I had to invest in sleeping headphones b/c I was miserable. I complained to Uptown and unfortunately they didn't do much. They offered to move me which was nice but then didn't honor the same rate. Unfortunately the insulation in newer builds is very bad but also if you plan on moving here do not live on the 2nd floor. I've even read some previous reviews and seems the 2nd floor is the worst. The snow could have been plowed better in the winter time. I paid for a car port yet there was always snow by my car in a handicapped spot (which should have been plowed anyways). People don't pick up after their dogs which is annoying- but again that can happen everywhere. It would have been nice to have more recycling bins as they were always full. Overall, other than the horrible sounds from my neighbors which completely changed my experience at Uptown, I would have enjoyed this place much more. It's a nice place, just hope you don't have to deal with sounds from neighbors. I also have to mention Tyler who is the Property Manager. He is the best and does a good job taking care of the property as well as the tenants. He is a very nice guy and works hard- I've seen him around helping with landscaping, walking around with tenants and working in the office after hours. Uptown is lucky to have Tyler!

Great experience thus far at Uptown. Tamara (the leasing agent) has been wonderful since my first call, to move in, to present. Tyler (the property manager, if I'm not mistaken?) has been equally wonderful and understanding. I lived at an apartment building (Six11) on campus last year which was considered my many to be the best place to live on campus. Construction quality and management were terrible. Walls were like cardboard and other tenants were extremely noisy. Uptown is about a 10 min drive from central campus. Tenants are mostly young professionals (some seemingly very well-off judging by the cars I see in the lot), grad students, and a smattering of small families with young children. My next-door neighbors are UM medical students and the gentleman across the hall is a figure skating coach. Super quiet and friendly tenants. Uptown is also located on wetlands so there are some pristine nature views from the gym/common areas. The only major problem I had was with the bedroom blinds. There are blindingly bright lights turned on throughout the property after dark which I assume are used (understandably) to mitigate liabilities. The blinds in the units do essentially nothing to block out this light (it feels like there are alien ships landing at night). I complained about this and Tamara and Tyler enthusiastically assisted me with coming to a solution. The maintenance team will be helping me install a blackout film. Overall, super satisfied with the professionalism and courtesy of the Beztak team. As an aspiring real estate developer myself, I hope to have a crew like Tamara and Tyler working on my properties in the future.

I’ve been living at Uptown for about 8 months and it’s been nothing but a positive experience. Besides the modern and airy interior and beautiful landscaping, the people working here are just so kind and helpful. Any time I have had an issue, Tamara has been there immediately to help with a warm smile. She always goes out of her way to make sure I’m taken care of and exceeds my expectations. Dealing with maintenance is always easy and pleasant. Tyler’s friendliness is unmatched. Overall 10/10 experience so far!!
